Cucumbers are known for their astringent properties and are good for oily skin but also very hydrating and anti-inflammatory. They contain polysaccharides that are also found in Aloe Vera and are responsible for the hydrating and anti-inflammatory benefits in cucumbers. They are naturally cooling and astringent. Use fresh cucumber slices under your eyes to tighten and sooth the delicate skin there. The cooling effects of cucumber are great for calming sensitive skin types. Astringent properties help to balance oily skin and improve the appearance of large pores and acne. Major everyday uses of cucumber are that they reduce puffy eyes, fade dark circles, improves complexion, treats sunburns and tightens open pores.
